Christian Katz, division CEO of Swiss Exchange, has decided to leave SIX.
Katz’s decision is based on the strategic direction and on the further development of Swiss Exchange.
Since May 2009, he has headed up the business area and under his leadership, Swiss Exchange has expanded to become one of Europe's leading stock exchanges.
He will leave SIX at the end of April 2015 and Christoph Landis, head of operations and deputy division CEO Swiss Exchange, will assume responsibility for the management of the business on an interim basis.
Katz will continue to serve as the president of the Federation of European Securities Exchanges (FESE) until a suitable successor is found.
Urs Rüegsegger, group CEO SIX, commented: "In an extremely challenging environment, Katz stopped Swiss Exchange from losing market share in blue-chip trading and successfully expanded SIX's leading market position."
